Summary

It is Bizarre News and Blind Rankings time again!

**Trigger Warning: Child Abuse**

This month on Bizarre News, we cover:

Story 1 - A photograph taken over 50 years ago in Costa Rica, dubbed "the most convincing UFO photo ever," has resurfaced, showing a metallic disc floating above Lake Cote. The image, captured by aerial photographer Sergio Loaiza during a land survey mission, has puzzled experts for decades and remains unexplained despite close analysis from UFO skeptics.

Story 2 - Two women in Newton, North Carolina, face felony child abuse charges after two toddlers in their care suffered severe injuries, including burns, bite marks, broken bones, and tested positive for fentanyl. The accused, Emily Marie Edwards and her mother Sherrie Jean Edwards, bizarrely claimed that evil spirits and nightmares were responsible for the children's injuries, citing their use of an Ouija board.

Story 3 - A viral video from Chile appears to show a dog transforming into a human, sparking debates about whether it's a mythical "nagual" or simply a camera trick. 

Story 4 - Ring, the home security company, has launched a "Great Ghost Search" contest offering a $100,000 prize for the most compelling paranormal activity captured on a Ring device. Open to U.S. residents 18 and older, the competition invites users to submit footage of ghostly phenomena, with entries judged by a panel including "Stranger Things" star Finn Wolfhard and paranormal investigator Katrina Weidman.

Story 5 - Researchers from Monash University propose that Earth may have had a rocky ring around 466 million years ago, lasting for tens of millions of years. This theory is based on the unusual concentration of impact craters near the equator during the Ordovician period, and could explain other phenomena like a subsequent ice age and the characteristics of meteorite debris found in these craters.
